Point Defiance Fun

For Labor day Justin and I were going to go hiking, but we slept in too late and settled for a relaxing day at Point Defiance. We had sooo much fun.

We started the day off at the beautiful duck pond. It was seriously the best duck pond I have every been to, it even had a waterfall. We saw cute turtles sun bathing on rocks and lots of ducks and geese. Anyone who has little kids should totally go to this duck pond!

Not far from the duck pond was a cute little garden showcasing the AMAZING flowers that grow here in Washington. Justin especially loved the flowers where the petals curled and created little pockets, as Justin describes them "they looked like balls." Some of these flowers were seriously HUGE! Close to the size of our heads. Someone at Point Defiance has a serious sense of humor because we found a "bed of flowers" Haha sooo funny.

Point Defiance also has a great beach--Olson beach. We walked the boardwalk and found this hole that totally looks like the sewer from the movie "IT". If you have seen the movie you know how creepy it was. All along the boardwalk was carved poems, quote, and sayings--it was fun to read them. For the way back to the car we walked on the rocky beach where Justin found this rock that looks like a brain. To go along with the brain there was this creepy goo that we had no clue what it was. Maybe a dead jellyfish or alien guts? I mean where did this creepy stuff come from?

All in all Point Defiance was such a fun day! As we left we had a little surprise--a visit from a raccoon family! Aren't they soo cute! It ended with one of the most amazing barbecued food that our friends Logan and Emily cooked. SO much FUN!
